Men's Clothing

Now we can say that we can dress you head to toe in good quality kit.

We're not reinventing the wheel here. A sock is a sock. But like all things Cactus, we've made sure that these ones will go the distance. We did the ultimate test and made Rob wear a pair. Cactus socks will keep your toes toasty warm, make your shoes more comfortable, last for ages and being merino - shouldn't stink.*

For all you old school people out there who think they'll be too warm for summer, Merino is not only super warm in the winter, it's also super breathable in the summer. 

The Cactus socks come in black and in three sizes. Made in New Zealand.

*depending on personal hygiene, they will stink after several days of wear without washing. 

This is no ordinary shirt. And it's certainly not for ordinary people, who only do ordinary stuff. This is a heavy-duty, extra-tough 6oz C-Canvas beast of a shirt for extraordinary people who need something a little different to your average workshirt.

We've had quite a few requests for a proper, Cactus-style canvas workshirt. We thought it would be too much for most people to handle, but we made one, and gave to a mate of ours who's a high-country farmer in Canterbury. After wearing it pretty much every day for a year or so he gave us the verdict: "Best shirt I've ever owned". The shirt has worn in and softened beautifully. That was good enough for us! So we now present to you, the Cactus HD Supershirt – based on our proven polycotton drill Supershirt design, but in a heavy-duty 6oz C-Canvas.

Designed to be roomy enough for ease of movement while working, and fit a lightweight merino layer underneath. If you're after a more fitted look, go for the size down.

• Proofed 6oz C-Canvas is super durable and wears in nicely
• Reasonably high collar and domed wrist cuffs
• Two domed and articulated chest pockets
• Construction backed by a lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship
• Made in Christchurch, New Zealand

Our Dreadnought HD’s have been around a while now and have definitely developed something of an underground cult following due to their surprising comfort, superior breathability and absolutely incomparable durability. While they have become the ski pant of choice for those who demand the ultimate in burliness, you’ll also find them exceeding the expectations of those working in demanding conditions around the globe.

The HD’s were born of the notion that working/living/playing in tough environments (especially cold ones) didn't need to mean that you had to compromise comfort or durability. Originally designed for telemark skiing by Mark Schafer, these have been refined and redesigned over the years.

Constructed from our Ultra 12oz C-Canvas, these will outlast any other trouser - full stop. Our usual philosophy of making “gear that wear in not out” applies – these will get better and better with age. These are seriously heavy duty yet very warm and comfortable. However, if you find yourself spending more time in slush than fresh powder then our Lifties might be a better bet.

• Super durable and highly wearable Ultra 12oz C-Canvas, to help when you are looking down the barrel of a full season with a questionable amount of cash
• High back waist design for good overlap/warmth
• Pre-bent leg to keep movement free when it's all happening fast
• Webbing cinch cuffs for locking the snow out
• 2 handy front zip pockets for your lip stuff/cash etc
• Construction backed by a lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship

Love Cactus Trade Supertrousers, but wish they came in a lighter, softer fabric? The new Cactus CNC Fabric is for you. These pants are exactly the same design as our classic C-Canvas Supertrousers, but made from our new CNC Fabric, which is less stiff and lighter.

CNC Trade Supertrousers are designed for indoor trades, work outdoors in warmer temps, or for those who want off-the-shelf comfort, but compromising on durability is not an option.

CNC Trade Supertrousers are true, fully-featured work trousers for those whose work demands it. Your essentials are all close at hand with dedicated pockets for a cellphone, ruler, and punches or measuring tape, plus reinforced hammer loops that stand out for easy use. The large main pockets at the waist are external so the contents don’t get in the way so much when you crouch down. Two full size pockets at the back for your wallet full of cash because you never have to replace your work shorts. The belt loops are wide enough to take a full width equipment belt.

• Lightweight, wearable, but still super durable CNC Fabric
• Cellphone pocket (large enough to fit a big phone)
• Dual hammer loops for when it’s hammer time
• Ruler and measure pockets help you only cut once
• Roomy external main pockets for durability and easy access
• Wide belt loops for utility belts
• Construction backed by a lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship
• Made in NZ

The Armadillo colour fabric is designed to fade to a washed denim-look. With just a little bit of wear, your Supertrousers will match your old Hilux seat covers, and you won't look like the shiny-pants new guy on site.
